    giving help to others

    It is not meant that we should shoulder our problems alone,We are in the company of others by design,and the growth that each of us needs to experience is tied closely to both the sufferings and the celebrations that come to us all.
    We each have the capacity to nurture and guide anothers wavering steps.But the invitation to help must be extended.
    Perhaps we need reminding that each of us carries within us the remedy for another's ills. like wise,someone among us awaits our call for help. We are accompanying one another on this journey because together we can smooth away the rough spots that would cause us to stumble if we were traveling alone.
    Many calls for help will be made today,and some of us will be ready to respond. All of us need to remember that one of our greatest gifts is offering comfort to our stumbling friends

        Lovely post Mario!

        I also find that helping others helps MY desire to drink diminish. One of those AA tenets that seems to work no matter where it is applied.

          Thanks for the reminder, Mario.

          Coming to MWO and not having to go it alone, as has always been my inclination, is the icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned. This one thing made a difficult task much more bearable. Knowing I have backup if I ever need it is a huge weight off my shoulders.

          I also agree with you, Doggygirl. Plus I think positive energy breeds positive energy - and there can never be too much of that!

          Much love to you all! :h

            Mario - you are a wise soul.
            Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

              I agree Mario. It is important to support each other. Although we don't always have an answer or a revelation it benefits whomever is asking to know someone is reading their post and paying attention. Thanks for the reminder.

                    Indeed clare, the group support/empathy is why this place works for us. It allows us a vulnerability we probably have to hide most of the time.
